Ann Peters was in an Italian village in May, just in time...
Vancouver Island Motorsport Circuit held its official grand opening on June 6th. The Circuit invited some VRCBC members - and others - to bring their racing cars to do some demonstration laps as part of the ceremonies. Paul Bonner was there and sent us these photos - thanks Paul. See how many cars, motorcycles and famous personalities you recognize.
The May long weekend saw the 59th(!) annual running of the Knox Mountain Hillclimb in Kelowna. Our 'travelling correspondent', Brent Martin has forwarded some of his photos of VRCBC members, old friends of the Club plus some other interesting 'older' racing cars. You can see all of Brent's event photos on his web site here.
The final results are available on the Knox Mountain Hillclimb site (here) or directly here and here.
The second CACC-sanctioned, SCCBC-organized race event of the 2016 season - the Spring Sprint Weekend - was held on April 30 and May 1 at the Mission Raceway Park Road Course. It had the usual two full days of on-track action, including Time Attack on the Saturday and Vintage races on the Sunday.
The complete results are available on the SCCBC web site (here). The Vintage Closed Wheel and the Open Wheel / Sports Racer (with Vintage participants) results are also available under the Race Results menu on this web site (here).
Update: Look below for a sample of Brent Martin's photos of the Vintage action (Thanks Brent!) and then check out his website (here) for all of his motorsport galleries.
The next racing at Mission will be on the June 11-12 weekend. Stay tuned.
